the internet says 24 hours in some places, so thats what I was going to go by...
but maybe I'll try it in a few hours?

Pull out the battery, wait 10 seconds; it should be reset by then. That's the longest I've ever had to wait...

When I required a deep CMOS reset involving battery removal (a few weeks ago, in fact), I did it in just a couple of hours. I don't think a long interval will make a big difference, to be honest. With the battery out, no power connections, there's no power to the board, and whatever clock it's got has no power either.

Same with my board too , just tried getting to 3.1 but .................... NO BOOT

think ill just quit and settle for a stable 2.85 before i fry up a component burger

boonster, what was the limiting factor? Chip or board?

It is a good idea to attach the power button and click that a few times just to be sure the capacitor is gone.

I think I may miss my MSI... It took 5 seconds and NO battery removal to reset CMOS...
and if an overclock failed or if you have to turn off the board before POST using the power button or by cutting power two or three times in a row, it will automatically reset the FSB clock and then boot so that you don't have to change any settings back other than FSB...

personally I think its my lack of knowledge of all the tweaks this board has Joe , till im more comfortable with it im playin it safe lol .. the chip made 3.025 pretty easy .. but I get skiddish thinking about upping the nothbridge voltage too much

That is something I think I am going to miss with swapping to Abit instead of Gigabyte:

You actually have a CMOS jumper. The Gigabyte is no jumper to run, jumper to dump. If I want to dump, I just take my trusty case screw driver, tap it against the pins, and then reboot dumped. Now I am going to need to swap the stupid jumper around.

**txtmstrjoe** · 07-12-08

Yeah, boon, it's definitely a board that requires a studied approach.

I haven't even come close to knowing mine intimately enough yet. It's a very steep learning curve.

You could always go with thlnk3r's approach: Pick a setting, boot it up, test it, and run it if it passes the tests!
